Training Thursday 25th June

Recovery continues today in preparation for picking up the repetition progression next week. For today do an easy to steady 8 to 10 miles. Remember, hammering these medium length training runs doesn't give you any long term training benefit. All it does is knacker you so you can't train well the following days and hence you lose consistency and volume of training. The old saying is true in many cases "club runners do their easy runs too fast and their hard sessions too slow". Races are meant to take you to the limit, training runs are meant to slightly push the boundaries.
